Extended Description

While using regex_iterator template in our build2 toolchain project we have discovered that for some regular expressions the end iterator can never be reached.

The issue can be reproduced with the following code:

std::string s ("foo");
std::regex re (".*");

using it = std::regex_iteratorstd::string::const_iterator;

for (it i (s.begin (), s.end (), re), e; i != e; ++i) ; // Hangs.
